Surface Access Manager at East Midlands Airport, Colleen Hempson said “We always recommend that our customers check-in at least two hours before their flight is due to depart. With the extra cars on the road this weekend, we are advising people to allow even more time in planning their journey to and from the airport. We don’t want people to miss their flight or aircraft to be delayed, so the more prepared you can be – the better”.
